Our interview was at 8am. We had our baby with us, so we were ushered to the head of the line and got interviewed fairly quickly . My wife had a small blood clot from pinching the tip of her pinky in a door, so they were unable to take a print from that finger. Also, despite having been reassured by NVC that Police Check #1 would be accepted (due to our case having been completed prior to the Consulate's change of requirements), they gave my wife a blue slip and come back with Police Check #2. We did that and they issued the visa, so no big deal.

My wife got to the consulate at 7am. She interviewed 2 hours later. Out of the 18 windows she sat right in front of the one that would call her. There were 200 people interviewing with her being one of the last ones. So it does not pay to get there too early. The CO asked her about 10 questions and quickly looked through our pics of 2 and 3 of us before giving her the pink slip.

Other applicants who were waiting to be interviewed were amazed that Nguyet hadn't hired an attorney. They had their doubts about the efficacy of using a website for such an important and complicated process. Typical attorney fee was $700.
The interview was conducted in English, as per Nguyet's preference. The interviewing officer was polite and asked detailed questions, with a few simple trick questions thrown in, like "Is your husband . . . ?" But Nguyet found herself feeling comfortable after a few minutes and all went well.
The other applicants were surprised when Nguyet came out smiling.

The overall experience was pleasant. We got to the US Consulate at 6:30am for a 8am appointment, and the line to go through the first door didn't start until 7. Our interview didn't happen until close to 9:30 and it was only a couple minutes for us - we were out the door at 9:30. My husband was there with me and the CO was made aware of that. He told my husband that they would let him know if they wanted to ask him some questions, but that ended up not happening. Only a couple of basic questions for me like how and when we first met, did he propose, how we communicated when apart, where we both currently work, and last question was if we plan to move back to the U.S. (my husband has been living in VN with me for the last 1.5 years). The CO then said there was nothing else and that my visa is approved. We weren't asked to show any of the evidence, paperwork or photos, etc. that we brought with us, none at all, so that was a bit (pleasantly) surprising for us.
It's probabl... read complete review

The actual interview process for us was short. The woman that talked my wife was very nice. My wife did her interview mostly in English, but there was a few words that the translator had to translate. The CO asked my wife about what I do, when did she first talked to me, and when did I meet her in person.
The CO then called me up to the window and asked me how did I meet her and when did I first meet her person. Then the CO ask me what do I find special about my wife and she also ask the same question to my wife.
Next, the CO told me to show her a few pictures that were meaningful in our relationship and not to show her pictures from the wedding. We had well over 200 pictures, but I only showed 5 pictures to her.
Before my wife was called to the window for the interview, I saw the pink slip and I know that we had did good in preparing our paperwork.
All in all, the most difficult process for us, like everyone said, was the wai... read complete review
